The Tigers have to set their 40-man roster
by Friday. Why does this matter? Because a number
of minor leaguers need to be protected from the Rule 5 draft, which is held during the Winter Meetings each year in December. This year, the Tigers have a number of players who other teams might want ...

We learned a couple of things in recent
days. The first was pretty obvious: The Tigers made
it official they would not pursue contracts with free agent starting pitcher Jarrod Washburn or designated hitter Aubrey Huff . I don't think that surprises anyone at all. Those were not the players ...
